Its because they played flight sims before console shooters.
yeah

when i first played top gun at like age 6 or 7 the inverted controls really confused me but now i'm wired to be all but unable to play either flying games or shooters (even third-person ones) without inverted aim, i mean it really feels unnatural to me and it makes me aim slowly and poorly

also i think maybe the first polygonal FPSs i played (terminator: future shock and dark forces 2) defaulted to inverted?? idk i don't remember clearly

well in short top gun made me weirdly handicapped at playing games

i really don't understand horizontal inversion tho
